The Beauty of God



THE BEAUTY OF GOD
© 2014 Roland Ediare 011414256-2-5-1-21-20-25

The beauty of God
who can try,
light for your path
right across the meadow.
When things go rough
he makes you tough,
beauty for your ashes
till dusk becomes dawn.

Full of Good
even when you cry,
alone on your warpath
right through your most low.
When you're full of patches
from the earthly scratches,
tied in human shackles
till night be all spent.

His word be your food
fresh and dry,
crispy like cracker
till you get thirsty.
When you drink his word
you night become day,
then you know weeping ends
at your break of dawn.

The beauty of God
You need to pry,
readers become leaders
learn all you can
His mercy for your mistakes
graced to your lifting,
Strength to carry-on
Your new day has begun.

***Of all things that seems earthly important, God is all you will ever need, you can never be pleased with life till He is pleased with you. Without faith it's impossible to please God. (Heb. 11:6)

Roland 'KingShip' Ediare

I'm a man sold-out to The God of JesusChrist...I preach Him in & out of Season...-I I love life, laughter and being myself...I'm "BRASH"; usually not a 'respecter of persons'...I practically speak things as they are with a pragmatic intent. ...And I'm usually Very PASSIONATE about whatever I speak or do...lol ...Regarding my poetry: I usually put on a character and a subject that I'm passionate about...It brings me close to deliver my passion as the real characters would feel...As close as I can get if the 'subject' was me....someday 'Beyond the Sky' will be my reach. "Deo Volente!...Please Enjoy my poems, most of them are quite deep; so when you read try to get outside 'The Box'; because ...I write from outside the box...And Remain Blessed. Then before you rate Google the meaning of unknown word, you do not know it all...How do you fault what you do not understand...the burden of understanding is never on the giver of information, but on the recipient...Anyway thanks. more…
